Services
Crawl space encapsulation, repair, and mold remediation.
Five core services covering every step from inspection to one-day install to follow-up. TN-licensed contractors, IICRC certified for mold work, lifetime liner warranty in writing.
Our crawl space services
Full Crawl Space Encapsulation
One-day install on most East TN homes · lifetime liner warranty
The complete solution for damp, musty, or mold-prone crawl spaces. Heavy 20+ mil reinforced liner sealed across the floor and up foundation walls, vents sealed shut, access door insulated, dehumidifier or conditioned-air supply integrated. Once installed, the crawl space becomes a controlled-humidity zone — typically 40–55% RH year-round — instead of a moisture trap. Most East TN homes finish in a single day.

Lighter-weight liner on floor only · right answer for dry crawls
A 6–12 mil liner laid across the crawl-space floor and overlapped at seams, but not sealed up walls and not paired with dehumidification. This is the right answer for crawls that already have good drainage and no current moisture problem — you’re creating a clean working surface and preventing future ground-vapor migration without the cost of full encapsulation. Often a stepping stone before a full encapsulation later.

Commercial-grade unit with humidistat · condensate plumbed to drain
Commercial-grade Aprilaire or Santa Fe dehumidifier sized to the crawl-space volume, humidistat-controlled, condensate plumbed to a drain or pumped out. Required for any crawl that needs to stay below 55% relative humidity year-round — which in East Tennessee is functionally every encapsulated crawl during summer months. Can be installed standalone (existing encapsulation, no dehumidifier) or as part of a new encapsulation.

Structural fixes before encapsulation · sagging joists, failed piers, drainage
Sagging joists sistered or fully replaced, failed pier posts jacked and stabilized, rotted sill plates rebuilt, drainage corrections, sump pump installation, exterior grading recommendations. Often the prerequisite step before encapsulation: encapsulating over an unresolved structural problem just locks the problem in.

IICRC-protocol mold removal · required before encapsulation if mold is present
Full IICRC-protocol mold removal from joists, sub-floor, and crawl-space surfaces. HEPA-filtered containment, mechanical removal of affected materials, antimicrobial treatment, post-remediation verification. We don’t encapsulate over mold — sealing mold in a low-airflow environment just creates a long-term indoor air quality problem.

You smell something musty or see staining on the underside of the sub-floor? Start with a free inspection. We’ll moisture-test the joists, look for mold, check the vapor barrier (if any), evaluate the foundation walls and pier posts, and write a quote. About an hour on site.
Your home inspector flagged the crawl space on a real-estate transaction? Same starting point — free inspection — but call us immediately and tell us the closing date. We coordinate with your agent and inspector and can usually compress install scheduling.
You already have visible mold? We do the remediation first, then encapsulate. Encapsulating over mold without remediation locks it in — the spores stay viable, the crawl space becomes a long-term IAQ problem, and the encapsulation warranty doesn’t cover the situation.
You have standing water in the crawl space? That’s a drainage problem before it’s an encapsulation problem. We resolve drainage first — sump pump, sometimes exterior grading recommendations — then encapsulate. Encapsulating over standing water means the liner floats and the moisture migrates sideways.
The crawl space is dry but you want to be proactive? A simple vapor barrier may be all you need. We’ll tell you so during the inspection if that’s the case.
You bought the home with an existing encapsulation that smells musty? That’s usually a failed liner seal or a dead dehumidifier. We do these audits regularly. Often a tune-up costs a fraction of a re-install.
